  • In this 3 part series we attempt to follow the River Parrett from the source to the sea while staying on or above the river. Inspired by Ed Pratt, who also attempted to follow the river over 4 days. This challenge was particularly brutal, so we hope your enjoyment level is proportional to our suffering!

    Great to see this concept being pushed to the extreme, but you didn’t need to show me up THIS hard 😂 Also attempting this is December is mental! Can’t wait for the next parts

  • @ryanbratley6199

    You're very quick to challenge Ed Pratt for not being hardcore enough in their approach to this for 2 people who are being supported by 3 people and a big van rather than carrying all of your gear like he did.

    Constant bashing of Ed whilst having a support crew and somewhere to sleep each night makes this a tough watch.

    This would have been a fun video without all the bad-natured Ed Pratt jokes. Bad form guys.

  • @TheSuperF21

    I don't know if this was planned or not, but the timing of this video right after the straight-line mission with Geowizard is a clever move. Another banger video, great job!

    Comes across a little mean-spirited towards Ed here boys, I'm know it's all just jokes but Ed seems like a good lad 😂

  • @jensumayer

    Well, Ed strayed from the river at times, but he did it self-supported. No proper waders, no proper canoe, because you can't carry that. Carrying a tent and a boat some of the thicket and the culverts are just not passable. So really it is a different challenge. Kudos to all three of you!

    Next week: Running across Africa, inspired by the Hardest Geezer

  • @benrobinson8635

    Here's a crazy challenge idea. It would be to do anything without making cringe worthy digs at the people you're supposedly inspired by.

  • @Jl3Jl3Jl3

    With all those jokes, I am expecting your next video to involve Unicycling across Latvia, as it is obviously very easy to do everything Ed is doing :)

    Loved Ed's attempt and enjoyed yours! I think it's the support crew approach that makes the difference. Ed was carrying the boat and his gear ^^ I was quite surprised when no one bothered to take and bin the backpack you found in the river...just threw it back in....😅

    Ed's trip was more of a narrative journey a la Beau Miles than it was a follow the rules as closely as possible journey a la Geowizard

  • @OutsideYourZone

    Come on boys, gopro float mounts are a must! We learned that the hard way too 😂

  • @gunamerstravels

    I love Ed Pratt's videos.

    Reminds me of Beau Miles' "bad river" video, awesome.

    Pro tip if using waders in winter. Soft cheese is a natural insulator, drop it down there and let nature do the work.

    This is a really lovely concept. I've always wanted to follow a river all the way, just not
